PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS, AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA
This chapter presents, analyses and interprets the data gathered from this study.
Compressive Strength of Concrete
Table 2 presents the compressive strength of concrete . . .
Correlation between the Frequency of Water Shortage and the Profile of the Households
On Age. As shown in Table 4, there is no correlation between the frequency of water
shortage and the age of the households. The value of the coefficient correlation r = 0.0035 which
is lower than the p-value which is equal to 0.6353.
On Gender.
